Donald Trump, who says he is "seriously" considering a run for the Republican presidential nomination, yesterday released what he said was his birth certificate. Trump has been questioning whether President Obama was born in the United States, and he released the document to prove a point.
SNIP
Hotsheet reached Trump lawyer and advisor Michael Cohen, who is on vacation in Italy, for a response. Cohen said it was obvious that Trump has released "something that his parents had given him years and years ago and he obviously just had it put away."
"I don't think anyone's going to question whether Donald Trump is or was not born in New York," Cohen said. He went on to say that there are hospitals named after the Trump family in New York, yet the only hospitals named after Mr. Obama are in Ghana.
"It's a little bit odd," he said.
Asked whether Trump needed to release his official birth certificate, Cohen pointed out that Trump is "not yet" the president. He said Trump could produce an official birth certificate if necessary.
"If he is asked to produce a raised seal New York City Department of Health birth certificate, I'm pretty sure he can have one in as quick a period of time as you can go down and get it," said Cohen.
Cohen also insisted that Trump is "not part of this birther movement, he's just an individual that is questioning."
"What he is is a person who demands transparency, which is what the president's platform was all about when he decided to run," Cohen said, adding: "If you want to kill the comments, and you want to stop the chitter chatter about it, just show your birth certificate."

Not only that, they are ridiculing and attacking Trump’s birth certificate and parentage over the same issues Barry Sutoro fails to address
LOL! By posting that copy, Trump has them snookered.
The left now have all become experts on what makes a birth certificate “genuine” and what makes a “natural born citizen”.
Now they are all “birthers”. LOL!
Talk about liberalism being a mental illness
“the only hospitals named after Mr. Obama are in Ghana.”
Oh Snap.
Trump is a stalking horse for HELLry’s 2012 campaign.
I have MY birth certificate, just in case I ever decide to run for president (right after I sprout wings and fly around Pike’s Peak).
If you ever played snookers on a real snooker table, you’d understand where that word comes from, and how exactly correct your use of it is here to describe Mr. Donald Trump’s trapping of the Obama devotees on his Birth Certificate issue.
I think he’s a stalking horse too, but not for Hillary.
born June 14, 1946 in Queens, New York, NY (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)
Parents were
Frederick Christ Trump, born October 11, 1905 in Queens, NY, died June 1999 in Queens, NY
Mary Ann MacLeod, born May 10, 1912 in SCOTLAND, died August 7, 2000 in Queens, NY. Arrived in US October 5, 1935. Married January 1936. Naturalized as a US Citizen March 10, 1942.
Both parents were US Citizens at the time of his birth (Meets the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)
Donald Trump is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
I was thinking the same thing. Maybe Soros and Riady know Obama is not going to be re-elected; so they have to repair the damage Hillary did and make her their candidate. We would really lose with her too as she works for the same people. In order to get rid of these people; we have to kick all of them out.
They found Trump’s lawyer on vacation in Italy but they can’t find Barry’s relatives who claim he was born in Kenya...
Hopefully he has shown other GOP pols how not to be afraid of confronting it, how not to be intimidated by the PC police...to ask the questions that need to be asked, and more importantly, answered..
lol....sticking in the shiv
Trump is just a carnival barker, but I will say it will be fun to watch if he runs. Politics are a joke now anyway..maybe he’ll get Vince McMahon as VP.
AND.... he would be right except for the TpCaucus..
Trump thinks the TpCaucus are dopes..
Can't blame them for that. Who would want to go on assignment to Kenya?
Trump confirms what many on this site suspected. He has the goods on Obama and has his legal team working on it. No doubt they have investigators on it also.
I wonder when we will hear of them talking to the PIs who have done a lot of leg work on it these past years. You can be sure they have, and will continue to do more work. People will loosen up when they are offered money.
Money talks and bullshit walks.
I discovered this article, folded away among my birth certificate and old vaccination forms, when I was in high school. It’s a short piece, with a photograph of him. No mention is made of my mother or me, and I’m left to wonder whether the omission was intentional on my father’s part, in anticipation of his long departure. Perhaps the reporter failed to ask personal questions, intimidated by my father’s imperious manner; or perhaps it was an editorial decision, not part of the simple story that they were looking for. I wonder, too, whether the omission caused a fight between my parents.
Couldn't we just ask him to show us the birth certificate he was referring to in that passage? I don't need the vaccination forms.
